Re: Rugby World Cup
Hate to criticise emack, but a couple of those entries need correcting. I would have remembered England winning in '91 and Wales didn't beat Australia in the 2011 play-off.emack2 wrote: Venue Final PlayOff [Winners first]

Re: Rugby World Cup
If I take all these results and feed them into my Cray Supercomputer and run the special NASA developed algorithm, it tells me England will win the next World Cup.
Ably led by Captain Chris Ashton.
